Hometown Collectibles

Love it best Sports Store Ever

They seem to have what ever you are looking for in sports history.

On 12/06/2018 I had a family member in the surgical center just a mile down the road and had a couple hours to kill while I waited for her procedure to be completed. I walked into Hometown Collectibles in Emerald Square Mall. As I walked into the store I greeted the guy working behind the he said hi and I proceeded to look through the store. About 10 minutes later an older man (who I discovered later was one of the owners) walks in and starts to loudly berate the counter worker about a person wandering around the store (me) and he wasn’t watching me well enough.nnI have been collecting comics for many years and in the back of the store I noticed a huge stock of comic books, but they are separated from the customers by display counters so there is no way for me to look through or purchase any of them. The owner came over to me pretty much to see what I was doing in his store and I asked about how he sells the comics. He told me a story about how he sold some comics at a low price and that purchaser’s friend came in to also buy comics and “bragged” about getting a good deal. The owner does not sell out of the store anymore because he doesn’t think he can get every penny he can and will only sell graded books online.nnI highly suggest you stay clear of this place. The owner does not care about making happy customers only about how much money he can get out of you. The prices are unrealistically high, the greed factor is very strong with this establishment. The owner will not even sell to you unless he is confident he has gotten your very last dollar. The owner treats both his employees and customers with a great deal of contempt.

Great prices and down to earth staff, this place has everything sports memorabilia related and also other autographs from New England sports teams to national teams, balls, jerseys, helmets, cards plus a comic book section in the back. the place is quite large and Frank and Bob, the guys that run the place are able to acquire any signed piece you want for your collection. Great prices too! Best part all of this stuff is authenticated and sealed.

Great place. A lot to look at. Many neat pieces.
